I couldn't quit smiling as I left my doctor's appointment on Monday.  I had just heard that my breathing test was holding status quo, rock solid, which is unusual, most see a steady decline.  He could not explain why some patients decline, while patients like myself  level off.  I said maybe it is lifestyle?  He said he would keep me on his roster in case anything changed, but he was discharging me from the clinic.  Yippee yahoo!  Has I was leaving the hospital I ran into Dr. Atkins.  I hadn't seen him since he discharged me from medical daycare 5 years ago, after my bone marrow transplant.  He called me by name and that felt really good.  Good Day!
